gopher, git, mercurial | |

My gopherhole used to be a rather static thing in the sense that | |
once created, I hardly ever updated it, but when I started my phlog | |
everything changed, adding content on a regular basis forced me to | |
make decissions and I ended up creating a git repo in my hole. | |
I hosted it on gitorious but once it was acquired by gitlab I | |
switched to gitlab and I must admit that I am very happy with it. | |
The workflow was adding content to my sdfeu phlog, and pushing it to | |
gitlab but I couldn't pull from sdf since I am only arpa there. | |
What I did was creating a mirror using lftp which works like a charm | |
but currently there is no lftp installed here, and I cannot use lftp | |
on sdf either so I cannot change the direction of the mirror. | |
Another alternative would be using mercurial on sdf, which I have | |
access to, but unfortunately there is no mercurial on sdfeu either. | |
What I did, to cut a pretty long story short, was a link on sdf | |
to my phlog at sdfeu, this way and maybe only momentarily, the | |
static content remains the same and the phlog points here. | |
Maybe not the best solution, but it works, converting git to | |
mercurial would be too much work, and when I request new software I | |
must remember to ask for lftp and mercurial here on sdfeu. | |
